I always thought it was weird that my parents didn't take any interest in my personal life/interests since all my friends had super over protective parents. i mean she didn't even cancel the dirty programs on tv after hours. we had no censorship or anything like that growing up... mom just kind of let us do our thing and figure things out on our own. got all the drinking and drug experiences out of the way... realised early on that that's not really what i'm into anyways. i think i turned out okay so i guess her method of parenting worked? haha. i know a lot of my friends who got into really bad situations in college because they went crazy with their freedom. some part of me think she was super lenient because she was doing sketchy ***** herself. if my dad had raised us it would be a completely different story.
